So i pulled the cylinder heads off a 1970 1.7L engine and they look really pretty . . . (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/icon8.gif)

This is my first Type IV to dismantle so does anyone have any suggestions? How does it look? I also took off the oil filler assembly and found 1/2" of rusted out gunk on the area below the breather assembly. How do i clean this out? Should I crack the case and just start from the beginning?
